Chapter 717 Gold in the Basement
Jiang Chen was standing outside the door. When he saw Ye Rou's hat fall off, his face suddenly changed and he rushed in quickly.
But Ye Rou reacted faster than him.
The black umbrella was pressed down to block the sight of the two people. At the same time, his right hand reached down to catch the fallen hat and put it on his head with the backhand.
Cheng Hui's vision was suddenly blocked by the black umbrella, and she was confused. When the umbrella was removed, she saw Ye Rou tilting her head, holding her hat with her hand, and covering her eyes with sunglasses, making a classic Michael Jackson move.
Although it's inexplicable, it's kind of cool...
Lian Xin, who was standing slightly back, looked at Jiang Chen who suddenly rushed in, then at Ye Rou who suddenly struck a pose, and was confused: "What happened?"
Ye Rou successfully resolved the crisis and gave Jiang Chen a smug look that said, "I told you I could do it," before explaining to Lian Xin, "My hat just fell off."
"oh."
Lianxin saw that Jiang Chen's face was slightly gloomy, and thought that he suddenly rushed in to talk to Ye Rou about something, so she tactfully stood up and said goodbye.
As the two of them left, Ye Rou casually handed the umbrella to Jiang Chen, patted her chest, and said thankfully, "I was so scared just now. I almost got caught. Fortunately, I was smart."
The oversized hat fell down and hurt her ears. Ye Rou rubbed the tips of her ears uncomfortably, took off her mask and sunglasses, and fanned herself hard.
It's too hot to wear this in the summer.
Jiang Chen's heart was still beating wildly and his face was gloomy as he thought of the thrilling scene just now.
He wanted to tell Ye Rou to be more careful, but it was just an accident and it wasn't her fault.
Seeing Ye Roure's discomfort, he said, "Go back first."
Avoiding the elders in the family, the two of them held black umbrellas and hid back to the inner courtyard.
As soon as she entered the small building, Ye Rou couldn't wait to throw off her heavy equipment.
Her colorful long hair fell down, faintly flashing with a colorful halo. In her excitement, her pupils were orange with a slight hint of red, like the most precious diamond, clear and luxurious.
"Jiang Chen, do you think my reaction speed was very fast just now?"
The pretty little peacock raised its head and waited obediently for praise.
Jiang Chen couldn't bear to spoil her fun, so he agreed, "Very impressive."
Ye Rou shook her head in praise: "That's right, don't you see who I am?"
Seeing her tail was about to rise to the sky, Jiang Chen teased her: "Of course, don't you see who my wife is, the respected Princess Ye Mary Sue Liushang Ximengyue Yanlan Rou."
Jiang Chen's voice was filled with a teasing smile.
Ye Rou's fury exploded, and a palm-sized dark cloud appeared out of nowhere, ready to strike.
She raised her hand and made a gesture as if to command the Dark Cloud Army to charge: "I'll give you a chance to explain."
Jiang Chen's eyes were frivolous, and his narrow eyes showed a bit of cunning: "I was wrong——"
He took a step forward as he spoke each word, the last word drawn out extra long. He suddenly reached out and picked Ye Rou up when she wasn't paying attention.
Suddenly in the air, Ye Rou subconsciously hugged Jiang Chen's neck.
The two of them were very close, their noses touching and their breaths intertwined.
The man raised his eyebrows proudly and pressed down his thin lips to firmly block the woman's words of accusation.
Seeing its master being bullied, the palm-sized black cloud spontaneously rushed towards Jiang Chen, splashing water vapor on Jiang Chen's head without any killing power.
The palm-sized thick cloud turned from black to pink and then to red...
The man leaned back on the sofa, and the woman in his arms had a pair of slender white legs revealed under her skirt, and further down were feet that looked like jade carvings.
After Ye Rou's breathing stabilized, Jiang Chen brushed her wet lips and said:
"I'm going to Jin City tomorrow. You have to take good care of yourself while I'm away. Don't go to any dangerous places. Go home immediately after class. I know your schedule and will call you from time to time. If you don't answer..."
Ye Rou knocked her chin against the man's broad shoulder and protested: "What if, I mean what if, if I don't answer..."
The big hand pinched the thin flesh on the woman's waist threateningly. Ye Rou tried to hide her head due to the itch, but was held firmly by the man.
He smiled dangerously: "Baby, believe me, you don't want to know the consequences."
The afterglow of the evening sun shone on Jiang Chen's face, illuminating his handsome and sinister features in Ye Rou's eyes. Thinking that she would not be able to see him for some time, her heart suddenly felt a little sour.
She raised her hands to hug him, and rubbed his face lovingly: "You must take care of yourself outside, don't get hurt, and... think of me."
At the end of her speech, her voice was slightly muffled.
Ever since the two came to Beijing, they have been like conjoined twins, never separated. Now they are suddenly separated, and not only Ye Rou is reluctant to leave, but Jiang Chen is too.
Jiang Chen took advantage of the situation and hugged her, patted her thin shoulders, and coaxed her: "I will be careful and will also miss you."
Human emotions are so strange. It’s okay if you don’t coax them, but the more you coax them, the more uncomfortable they become.
During Ye Rou's pregnancy, her emotions were prone to fluctuate.
Now attacked by sudden sadness, his pupils turned a sad blue, like the sky after rain, and the gray-blue eyes with a faint mist were soaked in water.
She was fragile and beautiful like this, and she really needed him...
Just like the goddess above the nine heavens, who has compassion for the world.
Jiang Chen wanted to sacrifice himself to her, kneeling at her feet, longing for her attention and love. At the same time, he was terrified that others would see Ye Rou like this.
I want to keep her to myself and don't want anyone to see her...
The crack in his heart grew bigger and bigger. Jiang Chen suddenly pinched Ye Rou's chin, forcing her to raise her head, and kissed her like a storm.
"Be good, open your eyes and look at me."
Ye Rou opened her eyes dazedly and met a pair of extremely dark eyes.
Like a bottomless sea.
Jiang Chen said paranoidly: "After we broke up, you have to think about me every moment."
Ye Rou nodded slowly, the tip of her tongue, slightly numb from being bitten, moving: "Okay."
The two of them wished they could turn into conjoined twins and spend every minute of the next two days together.
They hug each other while washing and sleeping, with their skin pressed tightly together.
Red rose petals filled the small building, and golden lotus flowers rose up the stairs...
There was a loud thunder last night, and the rain that had been lingering all day finally stopped, so I had a good night's sleep.
——
Because it was a business trip decided at the last minute, Jiang Chen opened his eyes at dawn.
Ye Rou slept beside him, her hands on her slightly bulging belly, her skirt rolled up boldly, revealing her long snow-white legs. Kiss marks covered her entire body, even her hands and feet.
The colorful hair turned black again, it seemed that the magic had lost its effect.
Jiang Chen was afraid of waking her up, so he moved very quietly.
But other people in Xiheyuan did not receive this treatment.
When Liu Yutang was dragged off the kang, he was completely dazed. Seeing that it was still light outside, he grabbed the large palm-leaf fan in his hand and swung it at Jiang Chen: "You little bastard, why are you messing around so early in the morning instead of sleeping properly?"
Jiang Chen didn't have much time, and he didn't want to waste it on these old men. He pulled Old Man Liu, who was about to take a nap, off the kang:
"I'm going to Jin City. During this time, you must make sure Ye Rou takes her medicine and takes good care of her health."
"Rou girl is my apprentice, my dear apprentice. Do I need you to remind me of these things? Get out!" Liu Yutang responded impatiently.
Seeing that he agreed, Jiang Chen went to bother others.
Zhou Yuqing, who was responsible for designing the courtyard next door, woke up early in the morning and received good news and bad news.
Good news: Ye Rou is pregnant with twins.
Bad news: The design of the yard next door needs to be changed again.
Because the unscrupulous father didn't want the newborn baby to steal the mother's attention, he asked him to design the child's room as far away from the inner courtyard as possible.
After hearing the request, the elegant professor from the Conservatory of Music cursed for the first time.
Jiang Chen didn't take it seriously, thinking he had conveyed the message. He left Old Man Zhou, who kept swearing, and went to cause trouble for the next person.
…
Ye Rou woke up completely unaware, and as soon as she opened her eyes, Jiang Chen grabbed her, put on her coat and shoes, and took her to the basement.
Yes, the small building appears to have three floors, but in fact it is the west floor.
There is another underground layer, which is an air-raid shelter dug by the original owner of this house to avoid bombing.
Now it is used by Jiang Chen to hide gold.
It was Ye Rou's first time to come underground. After passing through a long and dark corridor and turning several times, she reached the deepest part where there was a locked secret room.
Jiang Chen opened the door with his key, and under the dazzling beam of the flashlight, golden light shone brightly.
The gold found in the mountains behind Dahe Village was piled up on the table, forming a small golden mountain.
Ye Rou's jewellery was also displayed in this room, gorgeous and dazzling.
Ye Rou's eyes sparkled with gold. She grabbed Jiang Chen's hand and said excitedly, "Jiang Chen, we are so rich!"
Jiang Chen looked down at her and pinched her delicate cheek: "You are rich, so these are all yours."
Ye Rou said bluntly: "Of course they are all mine, and you are mine too."
Jiang Chen leaned over, kissed her cheek, and agreed in a hoarse voice: "Yes, I am yours too."
Ye Rou blushed slightly, as if she appreciated his manners. She took the initiative to kiss him, then wondered, "Why did you bring me here?"
"Aren't you looking to invest in a film?" Jiang Chen said, "Wang Honghong has connections in this area. I've already called him. He'll be assembling the filming team. You just need to be responsible for spending the money, and don't worry about anything else."
Ye Rou disagreed: "You won't take him to Jin City?"
Wang Honghong is smart and skilled. Ye Rou feels more at ease knowing that he is with Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen rubbed her head: "Don't worry, I have arranged everything."
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Ye Rou stopped trying to persuade him. She just swept away the excitement of seeing the gold and frowned with worry.
Jiang Chen found it funny, but also very useful.
The basement was cool and Ye Rou had already caught a cold, so she couldn't stay there for long. Jiang Chen took her to familiarize herself with the terrain, gave her the key to the secret room, and then protected her upstairs.
